About this title

Synopsis:

Unusual book

Review:

Several students over the years have told me it was one of the few texts they took with them to their first year of teaching. It contained the criteria for making good judgments. They could quickly apply the principles outlined to other books. l find this one of the primary strengths of the text and it is one reason why I keep using it.

Jean Stringam, Missouri State University

 

This text provides a clear and concise overview of children’s literature. It does not overwhelm the students with too much information. The strengths are clear and concise information and the reading lists.

Rhonda L. Truitt, Catawba College

 

The concise and clever writing style works so well with the students taking this course.

Marianne Baker, James Madison University

 

I love the first chapter and how it positions the reader in seeing the value of reading. I also love the color insert that makes illustrations come alive.
